[ubuntu-uk] Python problems in Raring ....

[Barry Drake]

Hi there ....   Yesterday I had a disaster and trashed the hard drive on 
which the testing version of Raring is installed.  I've been using 
Raring for a month now with Quantal running as a dual-boot backup and 
most things had been working just fine.  I re-installed Raring using 
yesterday's daily build and UbuntuOne would not work due to the Python 
module simplejson having gone missing in this build.  I reported this as 
a bug and it is fixed in the next UbuntuOne release.

I had a similar problem in Calibre - this time cssselect was the missing 
module.  But installing the module still gave a problem as a function 
call had changed in the new module ....   I thought I'd mention this on 
the list as I'm sure there will be other Python applications that are 
broken, and the breakages probably won't show up until a new 
installation of Raring is being used.

Regards,        Barry.
